My new 15g planted tank

[TMartinez]

Here is a pic of the 15g planted tank I setup. the fish have been in there a month or so and just added the Floramax substrate and plants 2 days ago. I am looking for cheers and jeers as well as ideas on what else to do with it. Current stock 3 bleeding heart tetras, 3 black fin tetras, 6 spotted corydoras...

Wanting a rather simple setup that will look impressive...

Looks like a great starter planted tank. I would recommend a bottle of excel as starter ferts. I have never had any luck with the green and white bamboo looking plant. I think its a terrestrial plant that Petco likes to sell as an aquarium plant.

Jungle Val is a great starter plant also! any Val really.

Good luck with plants! keep me updated!

I feel like the tank is still missing something. idea?

What are some lower plants i can put in there my corydoras can play in?

The green and white one needs to have the leaves out of the water in order to survive more than a couple months. If you could tell us what kind of lights you have it would help us tell you what plants you can use.

I kinda want some "grass like" plants... something my corydoras can play in. Ideas?

dwarf hairgrass? i think is what your describing. My corys love it

that looks about right... can you get it at "the chains" or do I have to buy online?

Anything else I should put in there for enhanced beauty??
